ENJOY OUR SKY WALK IN EVERY SEASON!


After a prolonged closure due to winter conditions, the Sky Walk has re-opened as of January 31, 2024 with hiking access only. Although the Reach for the Sky Canopy Walk is designed to be experienced year-round, if the weather creates unsafe conditions for visitors, it will close temporarily. Please check our website or Facebook page before visiting to confirm the availability of the Sky Walk.
